Turbo

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Turbo, a one-year-old male, was found all alone on the edge of a busy street. He is very affectionate with people and animals and gets along well with other dogs. He enjoys playing with cats, which not all cats appreciate. He is not afraid of people, including men. He is very playful. However, walking on a leash is still a bit challenging. As soon as he is fitted with a harness, he becomes paralyzed and doesn't move. He is calm in the car and likes to sleep. He is vaccinated, microchipped, has an EU pet passport and will be neutered soon. Turbo is 29 cm tall but 55 cm long. He has short, sturdy legs.

DE·Show original

Turbo, ein einjähriger Rüde, wurde ganz allein am Rand einer vielbefahrenen Straße gefunden. Er ist sehr lieb zu Menschen und Tieren und versteht sich gut mit anderen Hunden. Er spielt gern mit Katzen, was nicht alle Katzen mögen. Er hat keine Angst vor Menschen, auch nicht vor Männern. Er ist sehr verspielt. Das Spazierengehen an der Leine ist allerdings noch etwas schwierig. Sobald man ihm ein Geschirr anlegt, ist er wie gelähmt und rührt sich nicht vom Fleck. Im Auto ist er ruhig und schläft gern. Er ist geimpft, gechipt, hat einen EU-Heimtierausweis und wird demnächst kastriert.Turbo ist 29 cm hoch, aber 55 cm lang. Er hat kurze, stämmige Beine.

About Turbo

What life with Turbo looks like

Turbo is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. in Germany.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Turbo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Turbo?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Turbo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Turbo if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Turbo already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Turbo isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Turbo and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
